NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
(Unaudited)
(Table amounts in thousands of dollars, except per share data)

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First National Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank of Joliet (the "Bank"). All material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The December 31, 1999 condensed balance sheet has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

    Interim statements are subject to possible adjustment in connection with the annual audit of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for the periods presented.

    The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

    Earnings per share of common stock is based on weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Earnings per share of common stock has been restated for the periods ended September 30, 1999 for the 5-for-4 stock split effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend as discussed in Note 5.

NOTE 2 — SECURITIES

    The amortized cost and fair value of securities available-for-sale at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are as follows:

    The amortized cost and fair value of securities held-to-maturity at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are as follows:

    Securities with a carrying value of approximately $254,066,000 and $215,000,000 at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and for other purposes required or permitted by law.

NOTE 3 — LOANS

    Loans are made to both individuals and commercial entities in a wide variety of industries. Loan terms vary as to interest rate, repayment period, and collateral requirements based on the type of loan requested and the credit worthiness of the prospective borrower. Credit risk tends to be geographically concentrated in that the majority of the loan customers are located in the markets served by the Company.

7

---

    Loans at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are as follows:

    Impaired loans consist of all nonaccrual loans and commercial and commercial real estate loans past due ninety days and more. Impaired loans amounted to $2,430,000 at September 30, 2000 and $1,076,000 at December 31, 1999.

    Changes in the allowance for loan losses were as follows:

NOTE 4 — COMMITMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK

    The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit which, to varying degrees, involve elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

    The Company's exposure to credit loss on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit in the event of non-performance by the customer is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments.

    A summary of the contract amounts of the Company's exposure to off-balance-sheet risk is as follows:

    Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer.

8

---

    Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to customers. Most of the Bank's standby letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon.

    The Company and the Bank are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The resolution of these matters is not expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 5 — COMMON STOCK

    On January 13, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved a resolution to increase the number of authorized common stock shares from 5,500,000 shares to 10,000,000 shares. Such resolution was approved by stockholders at the March 9, 2000 annual meeting.

    The Company's Board of Directors also approved a 5-for-4 stock split to be effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend to common stockholders of record as of March 23, 2000 with a payable date of April 6, 2000. Per share data for the periods ended September 30, 1999 has been restated to give effect to the stock split.

NOTE 6 — BRANCH ACQUISITION

    On September 15, 2000, the Bank acquired an existing bank's branch office located in Manhattan, Illinois. At the date of purchase, the bank acquired deposits of $8,675,000 and premises and equipment of $542,000. This purchase resulted in intangible assets of $606,000. This transaction was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, assets and liabilities are recorded at their fair values on the acquisition date. As such, the results of operations are excluded from the consolidated statements of income for periods prior to the acquisition date.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    The following presents management's discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of First National Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") as of the dates and for the periods indicated. This discussion is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company's interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

    The statements contained in this management's discussion and analysis that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements subject to the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions. The Company's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiary Bank include, but are not limited to, changes in: interest rates, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board; the quality or composition of the loan or securities portfolios; demand for loan products; deposit flows; competition; demand for financial services in the Company's market area; accounting principles, policies and guidelines; implementation of new technologies; and the Company's ability to develop and maintain secure and reliable electronic systems. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further information concerning the Company and its business, including additional factors that could materially affect the Company's financial results, is included in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

    Total assets increased $61,140,000 or 6.02% to $1,075,980,000 as of September 30, 2000, compared to December 31, 1999. During the first nine months of 2000, net loans decreased $1,573,000, down .27% from December 31, 1999. Deposits increased $43,097,000 during the first nine months of 2000, up 5.32% from December 31, 1999. Stockholders' Equity increased $6,025,000 up 6.90% from December 31, 1999.

    At September 30, 2000, earning assets were $984,537,000, an increase of $59,493,000 or 6.43% from $925,044,000 at December 31, 1999. Average earning assets for the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $943,298,000, an increase of $54,435,000 or 6.12% from the same period in 1999, primarily due to an increase of $8,229,000 in the average loan portfolio, an increase of $38,431,000 in average securities, and an increase of $7,775,000 in average federal funds sold.

    Interest-bearing liabilities were $817,151,000 at September 30, 2000, an increase of $44,244,000 or 5.72%, from $772,907,000 at December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to an increase of 10.64% in short-term borrowings and a 24.03% increase in NOW accounts, both as a result of fluctuations in the balances of seasonal public funds. Other increases include 12.11% in money market accounts and 1.69% in time deposits.

    Average interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $773,253,000, an increase of $61,156,000, or 5.74% from 1999. The increase was primarily due to a 2.91% increase in interest-bearing deposits and a 39.78% increase in short-term borrowings, primarily seasonal repurchase agreements of municipalities.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    For the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company earned $2,910,000 or $.96 per share as compared to $2,873,000 or $.95 per share for the same period in 1999. On a percentage basis, net income for the third quarter of 2000 increased by 1.29% over 1999. The Company's annualized return on average assets for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was 1.14% versus 1.18% for the same period in 1999. Annualized return on average equity was 12.56% for the third quarter of 2000 compared to 13.25% for the third quarter of 1999.

    For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company earned $8,900,000 or $2.94 per share as compared to $8,714,000 or $2.88 per share for the same period in 1999. During this period net income increased 2.13% over the same period in 1999. The Company's annualized return on average assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was 1.19% versus 1.27% for the same period in 1999. Annualized return on average equity was 13.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to 13.78% for the same period in 1999.

NET INTEREST INCOME

    Net interest income, the difference between total interest earned on earning assets and total interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, is the Company's principal source of income. Net interest income is influenced by changes in the volume and yield on earning assets as well as changes in the volume and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The Company attempts to favorably impact net interest income through investment decisions and monitoring interest rates offered to customers, particularly rates for time deposits and short-term borrowings.

    On a tax equivalent basis (35% income tax rate), the Company's net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets was 4.10% for the three months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to 4.35% for the same period in 1999.

    For the three months ended September 30, 2000, the yield on earning assets increased 34 basis points to 7.67% and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 78 basis points to 4.54% as compared to the same period in 1999. The increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities is due primarily to the higher rate environment in 2000 and a greater volume of short-term borrowings with interest rates higher than average deposit liabilities.

    Tax equivalent net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2000, decreased $29,000 or .30% compared to the same period in 1999. The increase in the volume of earning assets net of interest-bearing liabilities produced a $622,000 income increase while changes in interest rates decreased income by $651,000.

    For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, on a tax equivalent basis, the Company's net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets was 4.20% as compared to 4.34% for the same period in 1999. The yield on earning assets increased 37 basis points to 7.58% and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 54 basis points to 4.30%. Tax equivalent net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased $688,000 or 2.42% compared to the same period in 1999. The increase in the volume of earning assets net of interest-bearing liabilities produced $1,068,000 of the net interest income increase while changes in interest rates decreased income by $380,000.

NONINTEREST INCOME

    Noninterest income consists primarily of service charges on deposit accounts and trust fees. Total noninterest income was $1,924,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $121,000, or 6.71%, from the same period in 1999. The ratio of noninterest income to income before income taxes was 45.14% and 41.80% for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

---

    The noninterest income increase of $121,000 was primarily attributable to increases of $85,000 in trust fees, $18,000 in gains on the sale of other real estate, and $54,000 in service charges on deposit accounts. These increases are offset, in part, by decreases in ATM surcharge fees of $13,000, $12,000 in income on the sale of checks to depositors, and $6,000 in servicing fees on sold loans.

    For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the total noninterest income was $5,669,000, an increase of $287,000 or 5.33% from the same period in 1999. The increase included increases in trust fees of $283,000 and deposit service charges of $142,000. These increases are offset by decreases in net securities gains of $11,000, $106,000 in gains on the sale of loans, and $11,000 in ATM surcharge fees.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

    Noninterest expense increased $33,000, or .51%, to $6,485,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $6,452,000 in 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, noninterest expense increased $466,000 or 2.50% to $19,071,000 as compared to $18,605,000 for the same period in 1999.

    Details of noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 and the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are presented in the following schedule:

    Salaries and employee benefits increased by $86,000 or 2.52% for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Year-to-date 2000 expense increased 4.01% compared to 1999. The increase is attributable to general pay increases and increases in health insurance costs and retirement plan costs. Salaries and benefits represented the largest category of noninterest expense accounting for 53.97% of total noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 52.91% for the same period in 1999. The Company's number of full-time equivalent employees at September 30, 2000 was 350, compared to 384 at December 31, 1999 and 373 at September 30, 1999.

    Occupancy and equipment expense increased 8.21% for the three months ended September 30, 2000 versus 1999 and 11.22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to 1999. The increase is due in part to the opening of two branches in the second half of 1999. Growth in the volume of loan and deposit accounts contributed to higher data processing expense in 2000. FDIC insurance and bank examination assessments increased 32.35% for the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 and 34.83% year-to-date 2000 versus 1999. This increase is due to changes made by the FDIC in how insured institutions will be assessed fees, resulting in higher costs for all banks.

NONPERFORMING LOANS

    Nonperforming loans are comprised of those loans on which interest income is not being accrued and other loans which are contractually in arrears as to principal or interest for ninety days or more.

    As of September 30, 2000, the Company's nonperforming loans were $2,923,000 or .50% of total loans compared to $1,494,000 or .25% of total loans at December 31, 1999. The increase is attributable to increases of $84,000 in residential real estate, $22,000 in consumer, and $1,345,000 in commercial real estate nonperforming loans. Impaired loans amounted to $2,430,000 at September 30, 2000 and $1,076,000 at December 31, 1999.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

    The allowance for loan losses increased $560,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2000 to $6,430,000, which represented 1.09% of total loans. At December 31, 1999, the allowance for loan losses represented .99% of total loans. The increase in the allowance reflects higher levels of nonperforming loans at September 30, 2000.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Stockholders' equity was $93,290,000 at September 30, 2000, an increase of $6,025,000, or 6.90% over December 31, 1999. At September 30, 2000, stockholders' equity represented 8.67% of total assets compared to 8.60% at December 31, 1999.

    Under rules adopted by federal bank regulatory agencies, bank holding companies and financial institutions are subject to "risk based" capital measurements. These regulations establish minimum levels for risk-based Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital ratios and the leverage ratio. The Company and its subsidiary Bank currently are considered "well capitalized" and exceed the capital requirements established by federal bank regulatory agencies.

    The Company's consolidated actual capital ratios at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are summarized below:

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    Beginning January 1, 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (Statement) 133 on derivatives will require all derivatives and hedging activities to be recorded at fair value in the balance sheet. Unless designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be recorded in the income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will generally be recorded by offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the hedged item, even if the fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise recorded. Since the Company has no significant derivative instruments or hedging activities, adoption of Statement 133 will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements, but the effect will depend on derivative holdings when this standard applies.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS

    The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "Act"), which was enacted in November, 1999, allows eligible bank holding companies to engage in a wider range of nonbanking activities, including greater authority to engage in securities and insurance activities. Under the Act, an eligible bank holding company that elects to become a financial holding company may engage in any activity that the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"), in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines by regulation or order is financial in nature, incidental to any such financial activity, or complementary to any such financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally. National banks are also authorized by the Act to engage, through "financial subsidiaries," in certain activity that is permissible for financial holding companies (as described above) and certain activity that the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Federal Reserve, determines is financial in nature or incidental to any such financial activity.

    Although various bank regulatory agencies have issued regulations as mandated by the Act, except for the jointly issued privacy regulations, the Act and its implementing regulations have had little impact on the daily operations of the Company and the Bank and, at this time, it is not possible to predict the impact the Act and its implementing regulations may have on the Company or the Bank. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not applied for or received approval to operate as a financial holding company. In addition, the Bank has not applied for or received approval to establish any financial subsidiaries. Less than 10% of all bank holding companies have elected to become financial holding companies.

BRANCH ACQUISITION

    On September 15, 2000, the Bank acquired the Manhattan, Illinois branch office of Marquette National Bank. The Bank acquired deposits of $8,675,000 and premises and equipment of $542,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. No effects of this acquisition are included in the financial statements prior to the date of purchase.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    The Company does not engage in foreign currency transactions, forward position or futures contracts, options, swaps or other types of complex financial instruments, nor does it engage in trading account activities. Thus, market risk is primarilly limited to the interest rate risks associated with the investing, lending, customer deposit taking and borrowing activities of its banking subsidiary. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk results primarily from changes in either the short-term U.S. prime interest rate and/or the rates offered for short and medium term notes of the U.S. Treasury. The following tables present the interest rate sensitivity and expected maturities of securities, fixed rate loans, time deposits and short-term borrowings as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999.

Information on variable rate loans by maturity period is not readily available. Interest rate risk on loan commitments, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit is minimal since most are for terms of ninety days or less and include variable rate features.

(2)

NOW, money market, and savings accounts are variable rate deposits. These deposit accounts, while shown as maturing in the year ending September 30, 2001, are considered by management as core deposits for asset/liability management purposes with account lives extending beyond one year.
